Question

When my daughter Kelsey was a child, she loved to join me in the garden. To1 chaos(混乱)in my own garden beds, I provided her with a space of her own, so Kelsey’s Corner was born. There she was2 to dig and plant as she wished. Over time, that small piece of land grew into a favorite place in the3.
As she approached high school, Kelsey took her4 off the garden. I didn’t5 to accept this change. It seemed acceptable that something as boring as working in the dirt gave way to the mystery of a(n)6 social life, so I began to take care of the space. Even so, I knew it always would be Kelsey’s Corner.
Now my daughter is eighteen and is in the7 weeks of her high school career. Our mailbox is filled with college admission materials,8 me that the world has come for this young lady and that she will soon answer its9. Kelsey is looking forward to her wonderful college life10 her mother and I are anxious about the coming life11 our daughter around.
Kelsey’s Corner seems extremely deserted in this early spring12 Kelsey’s leaving. One morning, when I13 past Kelsey’s Corner, I noticed some green seedlings had14 at the foot of some dead stalks(秆).
It’s15 that life is a cycle. Kelsey’s leaving is16 one point on the cycle. Now the life wheel will roll with Kelsey as she17 into her adult life.
Let her live as she will and let her18 when she can, and whether she comes alone or in19, she will be welcome home. I’11 take care of Kelsey’s Corner faithfully. It will also cycle annually, rolling on towards a20 stage of our lives, one that promises a rich harvest.
